A lost hunting dog used her instincts to make her way back to safety after spending several days without food or water in the bitter South Dakota cold.

The yellow Labrador was discovered January 4 when she retrieved a downed bird and returned it to a nearby hunter. The stunned hunter contacted U.S. Fish and Wildlife officials, who ultimately took the dog to Aberdeen Area Humane Society for care.

Elain Shaible, the shelter manager, said the dog, who was named River by the staff, was in rough condition when she was brought in.

DOG SHOOTS HUNTER AFTER ANOTHER HUNTER LEAVES SHOTGUN ON GROUND

“She had wounds on her joints and feet, which we found out were granulomas,” Schaible said to Dakota Media Group.

Granulomas in dogs are typically caused by excessively licking sores. At first they were thought to be frostbite because of the record subzero temperatures South Dakota had been experiencing. However, a veterinarian told Humane Society staff that wasn’t the case.

Shaible said River was placed in a warm, dry kennel where she slept for the next 48 hours.

River had no microchip or tags and was “much thinner than she should” have been, Shaible said. However, the dog did have a collar with a metal clip where tags were suspected to have been.

“She’s very well potty trained and obviously knows how to hunt,” Schaible said.

However, no one has claimed her or reported a lost or unwanted hunting dog, according to the Humane Society.

“She could’ve gotten lost during a hunt and the owner just didn’t care enough to go after her,” Schaible said.

Other hunting dogs have been surrendered to the Humane Society in the past.

“We got a call from a hunting lodge who wanted to surrender two hunting dogs because they didn’t perform well,” Schaible said.

River is assumed to be 8 to 10 years-old based on her teeth and other indicators. She is currently available for adoption at the Aberdeen Area Humane Society.

A man was accidentally exposed to HIV

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
An 85-year-old New Hampshire man may have accidentally been exposed to HIV after a hospital mistakenly injected him with an insulin pen previously used on an HIV-positive patient.

Eugene Devoyd, 85, was at Southern New Hampshire Medical Center due to a medical emergency relating to his diabetes, among other ailments, when he was inadvertently injected with an insulin pen previously used on a patient with HIV, according to medical records from the hospital, which were shared with New Hampshire ABC-affiliate WMUR.

The nurse removed the needle from the pen, and used a new needle to inject Devoyd, according to the documents. The doctor informed the family of the mistake, and put Devoyd on antiviral medication later that day in an attempt to prevent an HIV infection.

"The same insulin pen that was used on an HIV-positive patient was used to inject Eugene, but with a different needle," the document says.

Devoyd's son, Chris Devoyd, told WMUR that he unintentionally pricked himself with a needle after checking his father's blood sugar. He is now concerned for his own well-being, as well as his father's.

"I haven't heard anything from the hospital since he got out," Chris Devoyd told WMUR. "I thought maybe they would say sorry or maybe call and see how he was doing, but nothing. Not one thing."

WMUR

In a statement released Tuesday night, Southern New Hampshire Medical Center wrote that it cannot discuss individual treatment administered at the hospital, citing federal and state confidentiality laws. The statement did, however, say the facility is committed to preventing errors.

"Southern New Hampshire Medical Center has a long-standing record of delivering high quality, safe patient care, as demonstrated by our publicly reported measures," the statement reads. "What sets apart high-performing organizations is our commitment to reporting errors, analyzing the cause of the errors, and then implementing corrective action to prevent those errors from recurring. We embrace this philosophy, thereby aspiring to continuously improving our quality and safety outcomes."

Chris Devoyd said he and his father have been through an initial round of testing and both have come back negative for HIV so far.

Lizzie Dunn, 52, reported to detectives that a black woman she didn’t know attacked her as she was walking to a bus stop on Woodrow Road near Carlton Blvd. It turns out that she made up the entire story and purposely burned herself.

A Staten Island woman reported to police that she was sprayed in the face with acid, leaving her with serious and possibly disfiguring injuries. She suffered second-degree burns to the left side of her face as well as her scalp.

It turns out that she made up the entire story and purposely burned herself. She has a history of inflicting harm on herself though it is unclear if she has ever blamed another person for her injuries in the past.

Lizzie Dunn, 52, reported to detectives that a black woman she didn't know attacked her as she was walking to a bus stop on Woodrow Road near Carlton Blvd. in Arden Heights. The imaginary attack happened on Monday morning.

She said that she was alone when a woman came up to her asking for cigarettes and money.

"I just kept walking," Dunn said while recovering in the hospital. "I didn't respond and I think that triggered something in her."

She also reported that she was sprayed in the face with acid to Daily News and even provided pictures of her blackened face. After the "attack" she entered Rocco's Deli and asked those working there to call 911.

On Tuesday, she fully recanted her story and those investigating found evidence that contradicted her original report. Dunn has a history of self-harm.

Authorities determined that she fabricated the attack in which she said she was sprayed in the face with acid as they attempted to get more details from her regarding her attacker.

They found that she used a spray bottle in her home to burn her face with acid and her body had scars from previous self-inflicted injuries.

It is not yet clear if she will be charged for falsely reporting being sprayed in the face with acid to the police.

A rumor has gone around that H&M has attempted to fix their brand by creating an "equally racist" collection. However, that was confirmed false due to a graphic design editor taking previous products and editing them to look like actual products.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
H&M created an "Equally Racist" collection featuring children of various ethnicities in offensive clothing.

In early January 2018, clothing company H&M came under fire for an advertisement showing a black child in a sweatshirt that read: "Coolest Monkey in the Jungle." Shortly after the company issued an apology and discontinued the shirts, the entertainment web site Huzlers published a piece claiming that the company was attempting to make amends with an "Equally Racist" collection.

The "Equally Racist" collection, as imagined by Huzlers, aims to offend people of all different racial identities, including white people:

After H&M faced huge controversy for putting an African American boy to model a hoodie which read "Coolest monkey in the jungle", It is being reported that H&M is planning on releasing a new collection that according to chairman Stefan Persson, is "equally racist to all the other races". The collection will be called the "You're Not Alone" collection.

Stefan told reporters that the monkey hoodie was mostly being criticized by black people, so they decided to work on a collection that is racist to not only blacks, but also Hispanics, Whites, west Asians, and east Asians. Check out the collection so far below:

Huzlers is a well-known satire web site with a long history of pushing misinformation. They carry a disclaimer in the footer stating that "Huzlers.com is the most infamous fauxtire & satire entertainment website in the world."

However, people also began posting the images independent of the article itself (and thus the disclaimer). These images include a child of apparently Middle Eastern descent wearing a shirt that says "I'm the bomb," and an East Asian child wearing a shirt that implies he eats dog meat.

Of course, the images are doctored. Huzlers simply took images of children wearing real H&M clothing and then digitally added racist logos. Here's a look at the real H&M products (left) and the doctored Huzlersimages (right):

6 teen suicides in 6 months in 1 Ohio school district

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Three of the suicides occurred in a span of 11 days in January.

Police say the suicides don't look like they are linked, and the methods the children used were varied.

Chief Michael Pomesky said over the past five days his officers have responded to more than two dozen calls concerning potential suicides or asking for police to check on someone He said the community of Perry Township is in crisis.

"We pretty much went from no suicides to this," he said.

Porter's mother, Ashley Jones, told CNN affiliate WJW she thinks her son was bullied. Her son, worried about what four boys might do to him, had to be picked up from school one day, she told the Cleveland station.

But she had no idea her son would kill himself.

"Please tell somebody because he didn't tell us. He didn't speak. Maybe he was scared, I don't know, but if something is going on, don't be afraid to speak up," Jones told WJW.

Hayden's father, Shaun Porter, told CNN affiliate WEWS that Hayden had told him he was fine.

"Got off the bus, we talked for 30 to 45 minutes. I never thought he would've done that that day," Shaun Porter said.

The teens who have taken their own lives were 14 to 18 years old, Pomesky said.

He said about bullying: "We're aware that that is a factor in some suicides, but we have not identified that, as an agency, in these cases."

The chief implored parents to be involved.

"The most important part of this is that parents need to have conversations with their kids," he said.

Almost one in five teenagers between 15 and 19 has considered suicide, and nearly 10% have attempted it, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Among Americans between 10 and 24, suicide was the second-leading cause of death in 2015.

In November, Melissa C. Mercado, a behavioral scientist in the CDC's division of violence prevention, said some proven strategies for preventing suicide among youth include "strengthening access to and delivery of suicide care, creating protective environments, promoting youth connectedness, teaching coping and problem-solving skills, and identifying and supporting at-risk youth."

"Suicide is a public health problem that has far-reaching consequences," she said. "Suicide impacts friends, family members, co-workers, communities and society."

Officials at a Friday news conference in Ohiosaid the 1,7000 students at the high school, which is in Massillon, will be provided withan increasing number of resources.

"Know that our district will continue to work, we will not give up," Perry Local Schools Superintendent Scott Beatty said.

The six students included four high schoolers, a middle schooler and a Perry High graduate who lived in another town.

The school district, in a statement, requested members of the community help its students.

"We ask parents, residents, local organizations and everyone in the community to wrap around these young people to provide supports for those who are grieving and support for those that are dealing with difficult situations."

The district website includes a link to a help flyer that says: "You are not alone. There is help available."

North Korean athletes will march with South Koreans at Pyeongchang Olympics

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The details of how North Korea will participate in the upcoming Pyeongchang Winter Olympics are still being worked out - but we now know that the regime will send a cheering squad of 230 people to support athletes who make the trip to South Korea next month.

Details about the national spirit squad emerged as delegations from North and South Korea meet at the Peace House in the border village of Panmunjom to discuss the pariah regime's inclusion in the games.

"Cheering squads are typically made up of college-aged students and volunteers," NPR's Elise Hu reports from Seoul. "On Monday the two Koreas agreed that a North Korean orchestra, singers and dancers would come to the South to perform during the games."

North Korea also says it will send a delegation to the Paralympic Games that will follow February's Winter Olympics, according to updates from South Korea's Ministry of Unification.

The last time South Korea hosted the Olympics was in 1988; despite attempts to arrange for North Korea to participate, the regime didn't send any athletes to those games in Seoul.

While the arrangements for the 2018 games are being made after all standard deadlines for Olympic participation have elapsed, they're also being welcomed as a sign of easing tensions after months of alarm over North Korea's nuclear program.

The rare event of hundreds of North Koreans traveling south has prompted questions of how they should move between the cut-off countries. The regime is asking South Korea if its delegation can cross the border over land - presumably in cars and buses - according to the Korea Herald.

So far, the talks have included representatives from the two Koreas and Pyeongchang organizers. The International Olympic Committee will take a more high-profile role on Saturday, Jan. 20, when IOC President Thomas Bach welcomes all three delegations.

Topics at that session will range from the names and number of North Korean athletes who will participate, as well as matters of protocol around the regime's flag and anthem, and North Korea's Olympic uniforms and involvement in ceremonies at the Pyeongchang games.

Elvis impersonator hopes children from house of horrors find strength in each other: report

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The Las Vegas Elvis impersonator who renewed the wedding vows three times for the couple who allegedly held their 13 children captive said in an interview Tuesday that he was physically sick when he learned about the news reports, but was heartened by the thought that the children were finding strength in each other.'

Kent Ripley, the impersonator who conducted the 2013, 2015 and 2016 ceremonies for David and Louise Turpin, told the Daily News that he remembered singing and chatting with the children and said they all appeared to have strong bonds.

Ripley said the children were "soft-spoken" and "well-mannered."

"I'm hoping they do stick together and make this the beginning of a better life for themselves," he said. "My prayers are for the children. I hope that they can pick up the pieces."

Ripley spoke to the paper after authorities said they discovered 13 children--ages 2 to 29-- being held captive inside a home in Perrisl, Calif., which is about 60 miles from Los Angeles.

Authorities responded to the home on Sunday after a 17-year-old girl, who was malnurished and believed to be 10, managed to jump out of a window and call 911.

Sheriff's deputies said some of the children were chained to furniture and all of them were malnourished. Investigators said the single-family home was filthy, dark and "foul smelling."

Louise Turpin, 49, and her husband, David, 57, were jailed on $9 million bail. They were scheduled for an initial court appearance on Thursday. Authorities said the pair could face charges of torture and child endangerment.

The children were taken to local hospitals to begin the slow process of "re-feeding," officials said at a press conference Tuesday, the report said.

Their recovery period, both physically and emotionally, will likely be long and arduous, Dr. Donald Kirby, director of the Center for Human Nutrition at Ohio's Cleveland Clinic, said.

"They've gone through a very traumatic ordeal. I can tell you that they're very friendly, they're very cooperative and I believe they're hopeful that life will get better for them after this event," Mark Uffer, CEO of Corona Regional Medical Center, said.

The couple was scheduled for an initial court appearance on Thursday.

The Ripley's Elvis Chapel singer told the paper that he didn't consider the family's interactions as "odd" so much as "unique."

But ipley, as far-fetched as it sounds, may have been one of the few people on the outside who interacted with these children.

"I would not have expected something as negative and disgusting as what (police are alleging) was going on then," he said.

An Australian father conducts his own search for his son, and finds him using a helicopter.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A father's hunch in hiring a helicopter to search for his missing son may have saved the teen's life when the chopper spied the 17-year-old's wrecked car on the side of the road.

Tony Lethbridge, of New South Wales, Australia, said he feared the worst when his son, Samuel, did not return home Sunday morning after a Saturday night out with friends in the nearby city of Newcastle.

He reported his son as a missing person to police and then contacted a helicopter service to help him in the search, Sky News reported.

"When I saw the police, they thought he'd run away. I said 'that's not Samuel.' When he doesn't show up or phone, something's seriously wrong," Lethbridge told the Associated Press.

He added: "I understand that they've got a lot to do and they hear this every day, but I took matters into my own hands and was thinking all night that tomorrow morning, I'm just going to get a helicopter and go looking for him because we're running out of time - it's been long enough."

The search paid off. Samuel's car was spotted among the trees off the road about 12 miles from the family's home in Lake Macquarie.

The teenager was cut out from the wreck some 30 hours after the crash. He suffered multiple fractures and remains in serious condition, officials said.

"[He's] very lucky to be alive," said Jeff Atkins, inspector with the New South Wales Ambulance, according to Sky News.

Lethbridge got in touch with Lee Mitchell, pilot and part-owner of Skyline Aviation Group at Lake Macquarie, for help.

"He came in looking anxious and somewhat fatigued and said he needed a helicopter bad," Mitchell told reporters. "He just said: 'I've got [$797] on me, will that be enough?' and we said: 'Yes, it would.'"

Mitchell said they usually charged a rate of $956 per hour, but the company gave Lethbridge a discount after he explained his plight.

Samuel's uncle Michael Lethbridge joined Mitchell on board the helicopter for the search. The car was spotted within 15 minutes of taking off.

"It was fairly easy to spot from the air. It would've been near impossible to see from the road because it was well below the road level," Mitchell said.

The teen's uncle was the first to reach the car. He said he was terrified of what he would find and feared the worst.

"I really didn't want to go. I was scared of what I'd find. As I got closer I seen Sam's head move," Michael Lethbridge said. "I went from being terrified to ecstatic in a couple of seconds."

Mitchell said everyone was overwhelmed by the "great outcome."

"We've done a lot of search and rescue stuff in previous years and they don't always turn out so favorably," he said.

While Australians rarely pay for search and rescue operations, Tony Lethbridge, who works in a mail sorting room of the national postal service, has no complaints.

"It's priceless. If it's [$797] I've got to pay to get his life, I'm OK with that," the father said.

'New California' movement seeks to divide the Golden State in half

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Two men have launched a campaign to divide rural California from the coastal cities, motivated by what they referred to as a "tyrannical form of government," that doesn't follow the state or federal constitution, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.

Unlike the failed 2016 campaign to split California into 6 states, the "New California" movement, founded by Robert Paul Preston and Tom Reed, seeks to consolidate rural California into a dinstinct economy separate from the coast.

Preston and Reed say the citizens of the state live "under a tyrannical form of government that does not follow the California and U.S. Constitutions."

The "founders" have evoked Article IV Section 3 of the United States Constitution as justification for establishing a new economy with a new state constitution.

It states that a consensus must be reached by the state legislatures of California as well as congress. The process, according to New California representatives, could take 10 to 18 months.

The New California movement unveiled a " Declaration of Independence," earlier this week that called for a "free and Independent State" with "full power to establish and maintain law and order, to promote general prosperity."

Former CIA officer is arrested, accused of stashing top secret info

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Jerry Chun Shing Lee, a 13-year veteran of the spy agency, was charged with unlawful retention of national defense information and faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted.

The notebooks, described in a court filing as a datebook and an address book, were discovered in FBI searches of hotel rooms Lee stayed in in 2012, wrapped in a "small, clear plastic travel pack" inside his luggage, according to the court documents.

Written in their pages were the names and phone numbers of CIA assets and undercover employees, as well as the addresses of covert facilities and operational notes -- pieces of secret and top secret information "the disclosure of which could cause exceptionally grave damage to the National Security of the United States," the government wrote.

Lee, 53, made an initial court appearance in Brooklyn on Tuesday and did not enter a plea, the Justice Department said. His attorney could not be immediately reached Tuesday evening.

A trained CIA case officer, Lee maintained a top secret security clearance from 1994 through 2007, when he left the agency, court documents say.

Lee, a naturalized US citizen currently living in Hong Kong, was in the process of moving to northern Virginia from Hong Kong when the FBI conducted the hotel room searches in August 2012. Lee and his family lived in northern Virginia until June 2013, court documents say.

Monday, when Lee was arrested in New York, was his first time back in the country since he moved in 2013, a person familiar with the case said.

North and South Korea will be competing with each other and representing the same flag (Korean Peninsula) at the Winter 2018 Olympics. Before the Olympics they will be having a joint event to celebrate. North Korea is also sending a 230 person "cheering squad" to support all Korean athletes.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
North and South Korea have agreed to form a joint female ice hockey team and march together at next month's Winter Olympics, according to a joint statement from the countries released today by the South.

Interested in North Korea?

Add North Korea as an interest to stay up to date on the latest North Korea news, video, and analysis from ABC News.

The Koreas said their teams would walk together at the opening ceremony under a "Korean Peninsula flag." South Korea is hosting the Games next month in the city of Pyeongchang.

Officials from both nations plan to meet with the International Olympic Committee in Switzerland on Saturday about the North's Olympic participation. The IOC needs to approve their plans but has indicated support for the North's participation.

The two countries have been holding high-level talks since last week. They met again today at their shared border.

The Koreas said in the statement that their National Olympic Committees would discuss which Olympic events North Korean athletes would participate in and how many would attend.

North Korea also plans to send a 230-member cheering squad that will root for athletes from both countries, the statement said.

Moreover, the North will send around 30 Taekwondo demonstrators who will perform in Pyeongchang and Seoul, the countries said.

The North Korean delegation will travel by train, with the athletes arriving on Feb. 1. The Olympics start Feb. 9.

Before the start of the Games, the two countries will hold a joint cultural event at Mt. Kumgang in North Korea, the statement said.

If the teams do march together next month, it will not be the first time they walk together under a joint flag. They did so at the opening ceremonies of the 2000, 2004 and 2006 Olympics as well.

An illegal immigrant kills two cops, and during his trial he said he wishes he had killed more.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
An illegal immigrant began his murder trial for the 2014 killings of two Northern California sheriff's deputies on Tuesday with a profanity laced rant, calling a partner of one of the slain officers a "coward."

Prosecutor Rod Norgaard recounted the events that led to the death of Sacramento sheriff's Deputy Danny Oliver outside a Sacramento motel in October 2014, and described how Oliver's partner, Deputy Scott Brown, was able to retreat from the heavy gunfire.

Luis Enrique Monroy Bracamontes, 37, the alleged killer, interrupted the court when he grinned and called Brown a "coward."

Bracamontes was scolded by the Sacramento Superior Court judge, The Sacramento Bee reported.

"I wish I had killed more of the mother-------s," Bracamontes told the court. he continued, "I will break out soon and I will kill more, kill whoever gets in front of me...There's no need for a f---ing trial."

Bracamontes defense attorneys cited the outburst as more evidence that their client is unfit to stand trial.

His wife, 41-year-old Janelle Monroy, is also charged in the slayings. She argues that she was a victim of her abusive husband who frequently used drugs.

Bracamontes, who could face the death penalty if convicted, has had similar episodes in court in the past.

Bracamontes is from Mexico, and repeatedly entered the United States illegally. His wife is an American citizen and faces life in prison if found guilty.

Public defenders Jeffrey Barbour and Norm Dawson have unsuccessfully attempted to enter a plea of not guilty by insanity, and argued that it is unlikely their client will receive a fair trial due to the ant-immigrant sentiment encouraged by President Trump's hardline stance on immigration.

13 children held captive in home by parents

Riverside County sheriff's deputies who found the girl were struck by her small size and emaciated appearance. She looked to be only 10, authorities said, and she had photos to back up her claims.
When deputies arrived at the house, they found a scene as nightmarish as she had described.

The parents, David Allen Turpin, 57, and Louise Anna Turpin, 49, were arrested on suspicion of torture and child endangerment, and each was being held in lieu of $9 million bail.

The youngest child is 2. Deputies at first assumed from their frail and malnourished appearance that all in the group were minors, but they later determined that seven of them were adults ages 18 to 29, a Sheriff's Department statement said.

The children are believed to all be the couple's biological children, Fellows said. County adult and child protective services workers and medical professionals are assessing the siblings, he said.

Fellows said the parents showed "no indication of mental illness at this time."

He said the children's recovery would be long and praised the courage of the teenager who called 911.

"If you can imagine, being 17 years old and appearing to be a 10-year-old, being chained to a bed and being malnourished and injuries associated with that - I would call that torture," he said.

The children were home-schooled at the house, and the family had lived in Perris since about 2014, Fellows said.

"I can truly say that I am devastated at this act of cruelty," Perris Mayor Michael Vargas said, adding that his heart went out to the victims.

"I can't even begin to imagine the pain and suffering that they have endured."

Susan von Zabern, director of the Riverside County Department of Public Social Services, said county children's services officials are seeking court authorization to care for the siblings, "including the adult children to the extent that that's necessary."

Von Zabern said she could not comment on whether there were prior calls from or about the family but said the 911 call received Sunday - which was cross-reported to social workers - was "the first opportunity we had to intervene."

It is too early to know how long the siblings have been malnourished or subjected to abuse, she said, but "their condition indicates it has been a prolonged period of time."

Social workers, as is custom, will try to identify relatives who could care for the children, she said. They would "be subject to all kinds of background investigations to make sure they're suitable and stable."

Mark Uffer, chief executive of the Corona Regional Medical Center, said seven of the adult children - five females and two males ages 18 to 29 - are patients at his hospital.

"It's hard to think of them as adults when you first see them because they're small and their malnutrition," he said. "They're stable; they're being fed."

Uffer said the siblings are staying in a secured area where they are together. They are being treated with a team of nurses familiar with the case.

"They're very friendly. They're very cooperative, and I believe very hopeful that life will get better for them after this event," he said."

Uffer said hospital staff members were "horrified" by the case and the young people's conditions.

"I've been CEO for a long time," he said. "I've been in health care a long time. I've never seen this."

Public records show the couple own the tract house where the children were found. Its address is also listed in a state Department of Education directory as the location of the Sandcastle Day School, a private K-12 campus. David Turpin is listed as the principal.

During the last school year, the school was listed in state records as a nonreligious and co-ed institution. There were six students enrolled - one each in the fifth, sixth, eighth, ninth, 10th and 12th grades.

Kimberly Milligan, 50, who lives across the street from the Turpins' single-story house, said a lot about the family struck her as strange. The children she saw were very pale - an observation several other neighbors made as well. And she often wondered why, if there were so many children in the house, they never came out to play.

"I thought the kids were home-schooled," she said. "You know something is off, but you don't want to think bad of people."

And yet, Riverside County Sheriff's Capt. Greg Fellows said Tuesday, the children's mother was surprised to see authorities.

"It seemed that the mother was perplexed as to why we were at the residence," Fellows said.

Sheriff's deputies had never received a call from the house or about suspected child abuse, Fellows said at a news conference. A county child protective services official said this was the "first chance we had to intervene."

Authorities on Tuesday released more details about the nightmarish scene they found at the house on Muir Woods Road and about the conditions of the 13 siblings who appeared to have undergone years of abuse.

A 17-year-old girl called 911 early Sunday, saying she had escaped from her family's home, where her parents had been holding her captive.

On Tuesday, Fellows, commander of the sheriff's Perris station, said the girl escaped from a window in the house and called 911 from a deactivated cellphone.

Campaign launched to divide California

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Two men have launched a campaign to divide rural California from the coastal cities, motivated by what they referred to as a "tyrannical form of government," that doesn't follow the state or federal constitution, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.

Unlike the failed 2016 campaign to split California into 6 states, the "New California" movement, founded by Robert Paul Preston and Tom Reed, seeks to consolidate rural California into a dinstinct economy separate from the coast.

Preston and Reed say the citizens of the state live "under a tyrannical form of government that does not follow the California and U.S. Constitutions."

The "founders" have evoked Article IV Section 3 of the United States Constitution as justification for establishing a new economy with a new state constitution.

It states that a consensus must be reached by the state legislatures of California as well as congress. The process, according to New California representatives, could take 10 to 18 months.

The New California movement unveiled a " Declaration of Independence," earlier this week that called for a "free and Independent State" with "full power to establish and maintain law and order, to promote general prosperity."

Man recuses baby sloth on the beach before high tide in Costa Rica

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Dirk Morgan and his wife are no strangers to outdoor adventures, he says of their encounter with a struggling sloth on the shore in Costa Rica.

The Morgan family operates a Jungle Lodge in Puerto Jiménez on the Osa Peninsula - one of the world's most biodiverse regions - so they are used to encounters with tropical wildlife.

But Monday morning, they heard an unusual noise coming from the rocks of the coastal area of Punta Tigre and discovered a baby sloth clinging to life.

Morgan says the sun had been up for only an hour after a night of storms and high tide. There was no way to know from where the sloth came, but it was clear it needed help.

Morgan says if the sloth had not succumbed to the afternoon sun, nearby dogs would have made it their prey.

Taking photos and video along the way, the Morgans gathered a box, a towel, and some fresh water and began to rehabilitate the little jungle animal.

As luck would have it, the Morgans' Jungle Lodge is located right next door to an animal sanctuary owned by hedge fund manager, founder of the Robin Hood Foundation, and preservationist Paul Tudor Jones.

The Morgans said the staff at the sanctuary welcomed the sloth and immediately began nursing it to health.

Photos from the Morgans seem to show a smile on the sloth's face after being rescued and wrapped in a towel.

Dirk Morgan says he did what any person would have done to help a living being in need, but admits it was a great way to begin 2018.

Dirk says he was glad they happened to be in the right place at the right time to help this baby sloth.
